By 2008, Philip Glass had written five string quartets, between 1966 and 1991, and the British Smith Quartet has collected them all in this Signum release. The album is an intriguing testimony to the variety of Glass' output and the ways his music has evolved. The first quartet, in two slow movements, written in 1966 soon after he had completed his studies with Nadia Boulanger and had had his first exposure to the music of Ravi Shankar, would probably not be recognizable as a work by Glass to listeners only familiar with his "music with repetitive structures.
Following on from the critically acclaimed albums, Different Trains and Ghost Stories, Signum is pleased to announce the release of The Smith Quartet’s latest album, the complete string quartets by the world-acclaimed composer, Philip Glass. Over a time span of 25 years, Glass completed 8 quartets (the 3 earliest were withdrawn) drawing on the influences of Bach to Shostakovich, as well as exterior musical sources: dance, theatre and film. His five string quartets, as a whole, exhibit the intense introspection that this genre, perhaps above all others, inspires. The String Quartet No 1 dates from 1966, not long after Glass had completed his composition studies in Paris with the redoubtable French pedagogue, Nadia Boulanger. Pierre Boulez and his established Parisian avant-garde failed to hold the young American in their thrall and he turned to other, less readily radical sources.
